Gnar was happy with a family in the freljord.
The watcher's (Vel'koz), who we know wanted to take over the freljord, attacked and killed his family.
Gnar grew enraged and fought back.
Lissandra (who fought with the watchers) froze him in ice.
My interpretation/prediction as to what this means and what his lore will pertain to
Thoughts?
I think you lost it at saying Vel'koz is a Watcher, but I agree with the rest.
I don't think he was in freljord. the river, the vines in the background of the web page, the sun. they make it seem like its in a regular environment. and the mountains in addition to the small furry animals make me think of the yordles. it may be any of the watchers, seeing that the yordles were becoming too smart, so it attacked them. gnar, being a brave warrior, fought the monster and absorbed some of its void-iness and became a feral monster. while still having some humanity, he ran away into a cave where he was frozen for centuries.
Im just saying it resembles Vel'koz and im acknowledging the fact that is could be vel'koz. Im more inclined to believe that vel'koz' species were the watchers rather then vel'koz himself being a watcher
